what do you think of this box my friend designed

My friend who is a tech designed this box. It will be about 5.5-6 cubes and hold 2 12" RE SX. the only thing i found weird was that the dustcap was blowing out the port instead of the magnet. I mostly listen to rap and he sad this **** would pound. let me know what you guys think

The design looks good but try putting the subs facing out like normal (where the plexi would go) and using the center part as a nomal slot port.....put the plexi on the sides or top or back. The bandpass type box will sound great on some songs and not loud at all on others. A large slot ported enclosure is really what you are looking for if you want loud, balanced and great on rap music.

Well I Have Alot Of Experience With Bandpass Boxes And I Will Tell U This....that Design Looks Like It Will Not Be Tuned Right For Anything...the Sealed Part Is Big And The Ported Part Looks Like A Large Elbow Port.....if U Want A Decent Design Pm Me...i'll Design Something That Will Shake Your Door Handles Off And Sound Good Doing It......just Let Know What Car Of Truck Its Going Into So I Could Hook U Up

It's technically a 4th order bandpass, something that can be made to sound better than a standard ported enclosure Building one is like building a transmission line though...very challenging, not something to be attempted by a novice box builder.

Re: what do you think of this box my friend designed

bandpass is for people who think neons are cool and like showing off their system because they think it makes them cooler...a solid MDF ported enclosure will be your best bet...the different range of sounds is much less in a bandpass box...you cant hit every note and notice the difference...use outdoor carpet if you are concerned about looks...

there are two different types of systems...pretty and loud...there is a median...thats what i used...i could have gone more SPL but it would have made my car look ghetto...im not a hardcore SPLer, i find it gets old...
